On April 20, 2012 the Office of the Governor, announced the creation of the Live Music Grant
Program, which will fund free, live -music concerts across the state. The program is made possible
by a settlement from the Compact Disc Minimum Advertised Price Antitrust litigation and does not
utilize taxpayer dollars.
Grant applicants must partner with a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization or a city or county government
office willing to pay the upfront cost of the concert. The nonprofit or city/county government
organization will then be reimbursed by the Texas Music Office once the grant is approved. The City
of Round Rock applied for this grant on March 4, 2013. The total funding from the Texas Music
office is $3,000 ($1,500 per concert with a two concert maximum). In order to accept the funds, the
City Council must approve this resolution.
